I nervously submit for your lookie-loo-ness what you can do with color after you get your sight back...

I really, really love my surgeon...

if you click on the pictures you can see more detail than in the small versions on the blog page...

I've missed this. I may not be good at it, but I've missed it.

Very cool! My favorite is Deciduous.

Thank you so much, Hobie!

That seems to be the most popular among those who have seen these in person (I imagined laying on the ground beneath the trees in our back yard, looking up and that was what I imagined I'd see) and of course they're not my best work- I'm just getting the hang of holding a brush again...

but it is sure wonderful to be able to even know one color from another again.

My new glasses/contacts totally kick ass. I haven't been able to see this well in ten years.

hugs

Beautiful, Bru! Congratulations on being able to see colors again. I love the Hydrangea. You have a wonderful talent and I'm so glad you are able to use it again. Welcome back.

Those are really wonderful Bru. I love impressionist style. And we've got trees that look just like your Deciduous in the yard right now. I like your Firework Flowers best myself. Can't wait to see more.

I like Fireworks Flowers too. You did a great job with all of them--what do you mean, you're just getting the hang of holding a brush again? Girl, these are masterpieces! Keep up the good work! :)

I love the first one! I'm a total sucker for blues. But the colors are all so amazing.

I've got to say, UM hospital system often has some of the BEST doctors and surgeons in the world!
